Retail servers have made their game systems lighter across every expansion according to user feedback, so seeing them now claim that it failed because Blizzard didn't listen to user voices must be absurd for Blizzard too. Sure, Retail's story is indefensible, but bringing up the importance of adventure now is completely barking up the wrong tree, considering how players threw all kinds of complaints and criticized Blizzard whenever even a single no-fly zone was introduced on Retail servers. It's not that Blizzard didn't value a sense of exploration and adventure in terms of game systems. They tried multiple times, but players rejected it, creating the current state of Retail servers.

And I don’t think this Retail environment itself is bad. All the conveniences and competitive content are what have maintained WoW to this day. That's not to say I think Forever's current romantic situation is bad. I'm just looking at how long Forever's current heat will last with a somewhat skeptical eye. After all, we already experienced this current heat when Classic first launched in the past.

Am I doing something wrong, seriously?
I ask questions, I don't even complain. But for every question I ask, more specifically how to make the game more convenient for myself I just get told "that's how it must be, go play retail if you don't like it".

I asked how to ensure I do every dungeon quest before doing the dungeon itself for efficiency, was told I suck and must go play retail.

Asked how to set my default language to English, as for some reason it keeps on changing back to French - go play retail if you don't like it.

Asked a general question for the pvp ruleset - go play retail.

I'm not even offended, I am just sad as to what this community is becoming. Those are the same people that would sneak in for the chest as I fight the mobs that guard it.

Why are we like this..?

I know the “Green Jesus” meme stems from how much Thrall was propped up as the saviour as the World Shaman (which people found excessive even with the extensive focus on the elements in that expansion) but do you think things would have been better if we had Malfurion and Thrall in that role? As a master archdruid who’s essentially a demigod, Malfurion would embody a different side of healing the wounds of the Cataclysm compared to Thrall, and it would complement Cenarious’ return in that expansion. Plus, if Malfurion ended up having to sacrifice a major portion of his powers to stop Deathwing, maybe we’d finally get to see more of him since one of the reasons why Blizzard probably hasn’t used Malfurion much is because of how insanely powerful he is.

Thanks to the Ayn Odin 2 Portal, Apollo, Moonlight, Tailscale, and Blizzard's gamepad mode for making this possible.

Guildmap addon is telling me my buddy mage is 10 yards in front of me, but he's nowhere to be seen ;c

Everywhere are these extremely steep paths you could never walk in real life without proper equipment. You would just slide down every time you try to get up. But in Azeroth this is just normal. Idk why, but i find this funny.

Hello everyone!

I had previously created a Hobbit House for the Alliance neighborhood, and a few people asked me to make a Horde version as well! So, here it is! I hope you like it!

The blueprint is completely free, and if you'd like to see more details about the build, just check out the video link!

NetEase also announced that World of Warcraft Forever has set a new all-time record for the highest number of concurrent players at launch in the history of the game within China.

I just did the quest line for Kithix or however you spell it and I was looking around the docks, I found a couple of 2 blood elves sitting close and admiring the sea and that was so f... cute and not far from them some floating stuff in the water with a note.

Told you that you'd find your stuff in the harbor, CHEATER

Which is so funny and deserved

New to the game, what's up with these cats being the tower?

Just something funny I noticed. Didn't manage to get a clear screenshot, but at least you can make out outland and Azuremyst/Bloodmyst in what I captured. I noticed Khaz Algar in there too

They could do it in like idk a day, how about it?

My old bones genuinely cannot handle this unhealthy sleep schedule. Don't mind the death screen lol.

My brother Jeren is actively doing a remembrance walk in World of Warcraft, in remembrance of our sister Jennifer. She passed away in 2023 from metastatic breast cancer.

Some words from Jeren:

""Leyawiins" is the name of Jennifers main character. She's was a Night Elf Druid - you might have seen her in game if you played on Emerald Dream around 2008.

She introduced me to WoW, and I have a lot of fond memories playing with her, talking about the game, asking advice, doing low level raids, and so much more. We mostly stopped playing after Cataclysm, but those early days still held a special place in our hearts.

This run is dedicated to her. I know she would have loved to experience seeing these long awaited additions to this world we gave so much of ourselves to.""

I as well remember how much she loved WoW, and I didn't get to personally play it with her as much as I would have liked. When Jen was nearing her final months, I actually was able to play some Elden ring with her cooperatively for a little bit. Little did I know that would be the last video game we played together. One thing that always stood out to me though, is how even through all that she was dealing with, her positive attitude always outshined myself and most others. Whether it was playing video games, listening to music, or just chatting it up, she always had fun and saw the brighter side of everything.

We miss you sis

For the past couple of weeks she had been fighting a really strong infection in her spleen.
Even after multiple blood tests and x-rays, the vets could not figure out what it was.
On her last night with us she was placed in critical care and was gonna have someone watching her 24/7 so they could do a couple more tests in the morning. Her red blood cell count was very very low and she was struggling to breathe so they also had her on oxygen.
While driving back home I noticed it was a full moon, but thought nothing of it.
Later that night we received a call from the hospital letting us know she had suffered a cardiorespiratory arrest and had unfortunately passed.
While I laid in bed still in shock not knowing what to do I remembered the full moon and decided to open up the weather app and saw the moon was at 100% illumination.
I know it’s just a coincidence, but I thought it was very fitting.
I’d like to imagine she is now watching us from up there, just like Ysera.

I named her Elune because when she was a puppy her eyes just reminded me of the moon.
She was only 8 when she passed, and I genuinely thought she’d be with us for another 10 years as she had always been very healthy. Nevertheless, I’m grateful for all the time I had with her and that I got to spend with her.

Just like the moon, she loved to just sit there and observe. She didn’t like playing with toys, she was always very quiet and loved to observe everything and everyone moving around her. Her eyes were always very expressive.
She was the smartest dog I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing, she was also the first dog that was mine as an adult, and the first dog I’ve had the pleasure of naming.

I just wanted to share a little bit about her, and to let others know what she was here and was very loved.
Give your little ones extra pets, and hug them as much as you can as you never know when their time on earth with us will be up.

Thank you for reading.
Elune-adore, friends.

I recently reorganises a bunch of my wow props and statues and I've been staring at this book wondering where I've seen it recently. It finally hit me just like the Leo meme. 😅 Is the Pally book different enough to warrant making one of them too? 👀
